A few more more birds to add to my year list today, though oddly enough House Sparrow still hasn't made it, even though I had an extended walk, in the hope of seeing one.
Penns Wood was where most of the birds were today with 1 Goldcrest, 5 Long-tailed Tits, lots of Chaffinches, Great Tits & Blue Tits. Also here a fly-by Raven.

Hmm, well this is the Japanese Container Ship "One Cygnus" on its way from Yantian (China) to the Suez Canal (Egypt) where it is expected to arrive tomorrow at 11:00am. However it is heading up the English Channel, so somehow I dont think it will make the Suez tomorrow. More on this vessel Here and an interesting one to watch over the next few hours/days, to see where it's actually heading.
This is the Tanker "Advantage Pride" flying the flag of the Marshall Islands. It is on its way from Coruna (Spain) to Portland Harbour). More on this vessel Here.
